Sharon IM'ed Beth and me to ask if we wanted to go see 42nd Street, the musical production at the CLC (Cultural Life Center). The boyfriend of the student that rents a room from her has a starring role. I haven't been to see any musicals in a long time, so I was delighted to have a night out with the girls and take in a play.
We decided to meet for dinner at 5:30, then head over for the production. We tried out a new family restaurant in Chili, and the food was delicious. The place was packed (of course, on a Friday night), but we were seated right away. We laughed and chatted over our entrees, then braved the extreme cold to head back for our evening entertainment.
What fun and energetic song and dance. The songs were familiar (We're in the Money, Shuffle Off to Buffalo, Lullaby of Broadway, etc.) and the choreography clever and well executed. All I could think was - I would never be able to do all that singing and dancing, even when I was younger. But the 40 or so community actors and actresses did a bang up job. It was very upbeat and fun. And who better to enjoy it with than good friends with whom you have just broken bread?
We will definitely have to do that again!
